Providers and buyers of services

A service consists of work or another form of performance provided in exchange for payment, where no actual physical goods are involved. This may include agreements with architects, craftsmen, or moving companies, rental of movable property, or subscription services such as mobile phone contracts. Services therefore exist in many different forms.

When dealing with services, the Sale of Goods Act generally does not apply, as it primarily governs the purchase and sale of physical goods. However, a service may still be defective, and delays can also occur, similar to goods transactions. Disputes regarding services are therefore often resolved based on non-statutory principles of contract law, which can be complex to navigate. For this reason, it is important to prepare a detailed written agreement when entering into service contracts, as this can help prevent many disputes.

If you have purchased a service that turns out to be defective, or if you have provided a service and are faced with a claim from the customer, it is advisable to seek legal assistance to clarify your rights and help you handle the matter effectively.
